Increase Your Site Performance with Magento Enterprise Edition 1.14.1

The enhancements in Magento Enterprise Edition 1.14.1 deliver a faster, better shopping experience, while at the same time controlling your cost of operations. Recently completed benchmark testing by Zynovo, a third-party Magento system integrator, validated that Enterprise Edition 1.14.1 is our fastest, most CPU efficient version yet.

Research points to a strong link between web site performance and sales, and online shoppers have increasingly high expectations for superior web experiences. Taking advantage of the performance benefits of Enterprise Edition 1.14.1 and PHP 5.5 is one way merchants can continue to provide the types of shopping experiences that best serve their customers and deliver financial results.

Additional Tools to Understand Enterprise Edition Performance

The above benchmarking tests were all conducted utilizing the Magento Performance Toolkit, a valuable new resource to help optimize your site performance. The toolkit provides a standardized way to benchmark the performance of your Magento instance. We’ve also developed Magento Performance Testing Guidelines that contains recommended baseline settings for benchmarking Enterprise Edition performance.

Together, the toolkit and testing guidelines reveal the real impact software, hardware, and network customizations have on performance so that merchants and developers can make informed decisions to get the most out of Magento Enterprise Edition.

To better optimize your site performance, incorporate the Magento Performance Toolkit into your development processes. Get the toolkit from GitHub here and download the configuration guidelines here. Please note that the Performance Toolkit is offered as is, without support.
